Partnerships with companies
French engineers are trained in close collaboration with companies of all sizes. This partnership aims to prepare graduates for the workplace while ensuring they have a solid education.
Internships are an integral part of the Master’s degree in France and this is a major difference compared to courses abroad.
This preparation for the socioprofessional arena includes the following:
- Interships and projects undertaken with the company,
- Visiting production sites,
- Professional conferences,
The “n+” Master’s, (diplôme d’ingénieur) also includes:
- Modules on human and social sciences as well as an introduction to management,
- Modules on employment and business law.
Company grants: Companies work alongside the “n+i” network to offer grants to foreign students to come and study in France (see grants).
NoteCompany internships of over 2 consecutive months are paid.
Internships:
All engineering courses now include internships, usually with companies. At least one internship is obligatory on 90% of courses.
Internships are marked as part of the course.
